Low sex drive 😞

[littleraysofsunshine]

How can I boost my low sex drive? I have three small kids so tiring at times... My dp is always so thoughtful and wanting to spend time together. Generally when we get spare time it's the evenings why I am shattered...it's nothing about attraction, I still fancy the pants off him, we go through great periods of intimacy but then I just dip into low S drive.. Breastfeeding hormones will suppress too but can't be the all of the situation. I feel like shit after such a lovely day together t come home and be in a mood with one another at how I haven't got the mood for it. And then it gets to the point where it's to be hurried and not special.

I think it sounds pretty normal to me rather than boosting your sex drive. Tiredness takes over and housework, kids, food shopping arent exactly aphrodisiacs. Maybe getting a babysitter and have a date night together?

It's unlikely to be a low sex drive.. You're describing a schedule that leaves no space in it to be a couple except the evenings when everyone's tired and/or ratty. You don't want sex but I don't suppose you fancy doing anything else energetic or time consuming either.

So the challenge really is to make space in your days to relax both individually and as a couple. Make sure the domestic stuff doesn't just fall to you.... nothing more alluring and relaxing than a partner saying 'don't lift a finger, I'll deal with everything'.

Until life settles down a little, make sure you both reassure each other you are loved and there is no pressure.
